Please help! What are the currents in these equations? Simply write them out for IM, IL, and IR, respectively. Here is a circuit that looks like a cow. Part C: Problems Let V = 9.00V and R = 2.00. If you measure IM to be 1.93 Amps upwards, what would be the other two currents passing through the left, middle, and right branches of the circuit in your diagram? Call these variables IL and IR. Simplify the circuit as much as you can. Draw the simplified diagram below. Write in arrows to indicate the direction of the currents.
